Defenders of Dynatron City (1992)

When Maniac Mansion co-creator Gary Winnick tried to code his very own NES action game, the results were underwhelming. The marketing however took on a life of it’s own thanks to input from a young(ish) Steve Purcell, and so there exists both a Marvel Comics miniseries and a DiC pilot for ‘Defenders of Dynatron City’ that far surpass the quality of the game they were created to sell. We’d say some more about it, but that’s it. It sort of just, existed for a while before fading into obscurity. Apologies for the somewhat rushed episode this week, we should be back up to standard as usual next week. Well, provided the cartoon is decent, at least.
